I'm not usually a fan of Ann Coulter, but this column is excellent. Here's the start:
Whatever you had planned to do for the rest of the day, please drop it and read this right now: Heather Mac Donald’s new book, “When Race Trumps Merit: How the Pursuit of Equity Sacrifices Excellence, Destroys Beauty, and Threatens Lives.”
It seems that in the hysteria that followed George Floyd’s death in 2020, we agreed to destroy all of Western civilization — law, music, art, education, policing, science and medicine — to make up for black people not doing well on standardized tests.
Mac Donald cites not hundreds but thousands of institutions that have flung aside standards in order to more fully dedicate themselves to the sole, driving purpose of our nation: boosting black people’s self-esteem.
To consider just one arena, I don’t think you’re going to like the medical care you’ll be getting under the new regime. Just like in the wildly successful Soviet Union, science must be subordinated to politics, specifically “racial justice.”
A funny thing happened on the way to the destruction of civilization... it always does. People don't just meekly accept the fall of civilization, they band together in enclaves, territories of like-minded people, and fight back to preserve what they can. This is the point were we are now. Our "territorial enclave" is here at GAW, TS, and other places on the net.
I also feel fortunate to live in a place (east Tennessee) that has a higher concentration of right-minded people than other places. I pity the folks living in blue cities and blue states right now. But they too will have a chance to escape and join like-minded preservationists if they choose to.
My family escaped California five years ago and settled in Middle Tennessee. Tennessee is The Promised Land.
Shhhh, we're trying to keep that a secret.
🤣🤣 I thought you might say that!
Howdy Neighbor!
Hey, where are you? I'm in west Knox County.
Sullivan Co. Tri-Cities
Nice up there, got family in the area.
Indeed. Reminded me of the below:
“[I]n regard to the colored people, there is always more that is benevolent, I perceive, than just, manifested towards us. What I ask for the negro is not benevolence, not pity, not sympathy, but simply justice. The American people have always been anxious to know what they shall do with us… . I have had but one answer from the beginning. Do nothing with us! Your doing with us has already played the mischief with us. Do nothing with us! If the apples will not remain on the tree of their own strength, if they are worm-eaten at the core, if they are early ripe and disposed to fall, let them fall! … And if the negro cannot stand on his own legs, let him fall also. All I ask is, give him a chance to stand on his own legs! Let him alone! … [Y]our interference is doing him positive injury.” What the Black Man Wants: An Address Delivered in Boston, Massachusetts, on 26 January 1865, reprinted in 4 The Frederick Douglass Papers 59, 68 (J. Blassingame & J. McKivigan eds. 1991) (emphasis in original).
My how we've "progressed" with BLM and CRT (Concentrated Racist Training), to where whites are now once again the subjugated, loathed group suffering racial prejudice.
Civilization is what we make of it.
A major theme here at GAW is the certainty that western civilization was all built on lies so huge and all encompassing as to render everything we've ever been taught a lie. Many people here look forward to this destruction of the West. Another group of folks here at GAW believe and look forward to apocalypse narratives, mostly in the biblical context, and that features completely destroyed cities and nations etc. I see it all the time here. A certainty that total collapse and destruction is what is needed and even desired. So although it's for different reasons, at least the goals of total destruction of the USA is a common goal for a LOT of people.
No. Do not confuse modernity for civilization. Modern society was built on lies. Western Civilization was built on Christianity. Christian principles are what allowed our people to increase greatly our knowledge and to build strong nations. Proverbs 4:7 says “Wisdom is the principal thing; therefore get wisdom: and with all thy getting get understanding.” Modernity’s attacks on Christianity are attacks on civilization and knowledge.
